Spinning

Spinning is an aerobic exercise that takes place on a specially designed stationary spin bike.

As you pedal, on-tempo music plays and the instructor talks you through a visualization of an outdoor cycling workout: "You're going up a long hill now, you can't see the top yet.…"

During the class you vary your pace, sometimes pedalling as fast as you can, other times cranking up the tension and pedalling slowly from a standing position:

• Burn about 450 calories in 40 minutes
• Tone your quadriceps (front thigh muscles) and outer thigh muscles
• Increase heart and lung capacity
• No complicated moves to learn
• You remain in control when it comes to your pace
